Image Type & Dimensions: PNG, 500x200.Exact Text: DARK MIRROR PART IDescribe What You Want: A Shelek, Chirox-style, on a background similar to that of the Shadows banner, with 'DARK MIRROR' written in a sleek, modern font and PART I written below it on the right-hand side, but much smaller.Thanks in advance!

Possibly the intensity of the sun should be faded slightly to fit with the story it will advertise.Thanks for your work!

It's been a week, and I was just wondering how my banner's coming along.

I apologize for the wait. I'll get it done as soon as possible. I've been very busy lately.

I'll get this one done after I finish Lord Ghirahim's banner.Okay, Paradoxophobia, as promised, I finished the banner you requested. Here it is:If you need any adjustments, please notify me. Enjoy!-Rez

Okay, Pohuaki gave me this:If you use it, give credit to him. Let me know if you need any changes. Enjoy!

Thanks!Could you just make the Shelek a bit bigger?And, if you can (although it's not a must) could you get an image of one looking forward? (I don't mind if there are eyes behind it)

Um, just a question, does the Shelek have to be bigger? Because I would have to make a completely new banner to enlarge it. I'm not a professional, so it's kind of difficult to make those kind of changes. But if you would like me to do that, I can do it. It is my job after all. -RezEDIT: Oh, and Wotsiznaim, I'll have your banner soon.

If you use it, give credit to him. Let me know if you need any changes. Enjoy!

Just give credit to the shop if you use it.I wasn't sure if you wanted something that could be placed next to your current banner, or something the same size as your current banner. If you wanted something other than this, let one of us know.edit: Here's a really quick 500x200 version

Sorry about not being clear - my wording was really bad. I think I'll take the smaller one, but thanks doubly for your extra work. The banner will be up as soon as I post the story itself, I promise.

"You are not entitled to your opinion. You are entitled to your informed opinion. No one is entitled to be ignorant."

I look forward to it :)Good timing too, I actually just posted a new chapter of my epic [/shamelessadvertising]

Okay, it's finished. I'm sorry it's not the 500x200 you requested, but since the image of Shockwave cuts off the sides of some of him, putting him in a different image would make him look a bit odd. I hope this works:Is it okay? It's about 88Kb, so be aware of that. If you need any changes please notify me. Enjoy! -Rez

Thanks, that's brilliant! :)Although as a want (and to make it wider) you could have the sides of him kind of fading into the blackness, then have the writing kind of to his left and right and below him rather than overlapping. Although I don't know much about this kind of thing, so that might be harder than it sounds.As it is, though, is great EDIT: In fact, could you downsize it a bit? It's a little too big to fit in my signature.

No problem. When you say you want it a bit wider, is that a must? Because it was fairly hard to get it how I did. If I need to, I can. It's my job afterall. Also, I made a smaller version of it for you. It's not 275x275. Is that suitable for you? Here it is:Enjoy! -Rez

Hi. I hope my breaking Rule #2 isn't a problem here, but I'm not sure exactly what I want. I'd like a banner for my stories, and would like some advice. I'm not sure where else to post this or who to PM, and I think you guys could come up with something I like if I can find out what that is. I understand if you're busy or will ignore this because it isn't a work request sheet, but I'd appreciate it if someone could chat with me a little and help me come up with an idea.

If you could get them done by the end of the month, that would be great.-ibrow

Alright, sorry I haven't gotten this done ibrow, but with the hacking and such and I haven't been able to make it. Expect it fairly soon!

Image Type & Dimensions: PNG, 500x200Exact Text: He's back. And it's about time.Describe What You Want: A completely black background, with a light blue Pakari on the far left, with only one side visible, as if lit up by the glowing, light blue text to it's right, which is in a battered, worn font. The Pakari should be either facing forward or towards the text, preferably forward. If facing forward, only the lit up eye hole (on the right) on the mask should be visible. Behind the eyeholes have glowing, square blue eyes, like the MNOLG Matoran had, with both actual eyes visible, but only one eyehole, if that makes sense. If facing the text, have the head behind the mask as a Mata-style one, with only the faintly glowing, 'brain' part visible.Hope I've been clear enough

Alright, well I'll get this done after the other two requests. So much work. -Rez

HARD TRANCE SHUFFLING 2012 #1 - Savage", preferably one with both feet on the ground. It also should be HD (1080p). Mainly a 3-quarter shot, side shot is also acceptable. Also should be a shot with hood up, hood down is also acceptable.

If you're feeling very overwhelmed, I have some Photoshop experience and I can take some of them off your hands. Just think of me as a temporary recruit. I've just wanted to join in with this, but never thought I'd have the time. I'll try out Wotsiznaim's request, and try to have it done by the end of the week.EDIT: How's this for your rough font?

It's alright, but I was thinking more kind of hacks and tears at the edges and corners than the letters themselves having holes in. How about something like this or this?Just to clarify, since I wasn't entirely clear on my description: I'd like it to be pretty much white at the core, becoming blue closer and closer to the edges, then with a kind of darker blue glow coming off the edges.

Okay, and do you wantA picture:CGI:Or MNOLG style:These are just quick examples, I'll find something in the right color and clearer later. And I'm working on the glow effect, that part was pretty clear. :)EDIT: Okay, I just went ahead with a CGI since that was easiest to do the shading with (thank you B:NG!), but I had some trouble with the inside shading, since my copy of Photoshop doesn't do that very well. I'll keep trying, but for now, try this:

Also, by the way, if you notice something funny about the mask, and only if you notice (or else it will bug you for the rest of your time with this banner), highlight text below:X The eyes have been really bugging me, but they are not off center if you notice that. It's simply the effects of shading. X

That's brilliant, and the eyes don't look off-centre to me. Although could you make the Pakari a little bigger, so that it takes up the whole left portion of the banner, with the eyes being in line with the gap between the text and the rest is sort of offscreen. Here's what I mean in obscure character format:|¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬¬| EDGE OF FOREHEAD______TEXT LINE 1| EYES| TOP EDGE OF MOUTH________TEXT LINE 2|_______________________________________I'm not particularly good at describing things, as you can see, and quite picky, but pictures are worth more than enough words needed to describe this

Both eyes still visible, but the whole mask is not visible. So the mask is gonna need to move to the right a bit (and the text too to accommodate), then make the mask bigger so the eyes are the main focus, but you can still see both of them.Sorry about my description skills
